District and Supreme Court
If you are facing charges or Bail that will be determined in the District or Supreme Court, our lawyers will need to undertake a thorough evaluation of your case to provide an estimate of the costs. The reason for this is that charges heard in these courts are considered far more serious, with much higher penalties attached, and your case will require both a Solicitor and a Barrister to ensure the best possible outcomes.
